Enjoyed a lovely grownup evening out with another couple. Begin with Autumn Martinis and the Charcuterie board. Both very satisfying and perfect for nibbling and chatting. Our very knowledgeable waiter provided excellent dinner suggestions of the chicken special, fig pizza, gumbo and risotto! We enjoyed a bottle of wine, the food and the relaxed, yet sophisticated atmosphere. Will definitely return before year end. read more

Food is wonderful and awesome wine selection. I have been here many times and they never disappoint.

I cannot say enough about this restaurant, their owners, and the wonderful staff!! We held our small/intimate wedding at Brix this weekend and it was nothing short of wonderful and beautiful!!! The food was phenomenal, the service was top notch!! I could go on and on!! Very special thank you to owner, Nita Miller, for working with me for months and delivering the most special venue and evening. Jeff and I appreciate all that you and your staff did to make our evening so very special! read more

Always great service and the ambiance is very welcoming!! Great service, yummy food and a great selection of white, red and sparkling wines!

We had a wonderful time- food and service was excellent, wine selection and prices were impressive. The owners came by our table and were very nice people- you can tell they really care about everyone having a great experience. read more

Had another great experience at Brix, one of our favorite restaurants. The food was delicious and creative, nice selections of wine & drinks and our server, Kyle, was knowledgeable and courteous. This time we sat in one of the quieter sections but there are different areas to suite your moods while maintaining the wine cellar atmosphere. As a bonus, it was Houston Restaurant Weeks so it benefitted a good cause as well. read more

They were wonderful. The food was outstanding from appetizers to dessert. The service was perfect. They were available when needed, friendly but not overbearing. We will return. Paula Newton read more

They're back and as great as ever. We started coming here for "Brixology" the handcrafted cocktail sister to Brix. Covid put an end to that. We've been back since they've slowly re-opened with the rest of Vintage. Today was our first day back without masks and generally summer weather. The love-fest we developed with Brixology is back at Brix. As usual, the servers "know" the menu in intimate detail. They listen to you and recommend. You should listen ... It was a little after 5PM and we had worked inside "at home" all day. It was time to enjoy the patio sun at Brix and have a bite of their wonderfully fresh and always changing menu. Well, they change, but we are a little slower. We have moved from their jalapeno burger to their various pizzas, some fish dishes, etc to other things. Lately, we are completely stuck on the baby arugula salad comes with strawberries and dried cherries and just reeks of "wonderful summer salad" vibes. Lately, we've fallen into sharing the marieke gouda, pancetta, arugula, & balsamic vinaigrette chicken sliders to compliment the salad (also shared, but we will probably each get one in future). We ordered our (seasonal) usual which included this amazing Brash wheat beer that's difficult to get anywhere else, and a ginger buzz (garnished with a Szechuan button). Our server Alex picked up immediately on this (absolutely amazing) new drink the manager created for the menu that day based on their ginger buzz. This drink had the Szechuan button mixed in already. Alex nailed it. The drink was amazing and totally one-upped the Ginger Buzz as the best "summer drink" we've had in a long time. Refreshing and with the mouth numbing effect of the Szechuan button mixed in. We were totally satisfied and ready to call it quits. In polite conversation we mentioned how much my wife missed their version of the Anvil classic, Pliny's Tonic (a beautiful habenero tincture drink) with a heat rating of 5. Well, Alex, being at the top of his game (a common theme with service here ... laid back, but knowledgeable and attentive), spoke to the owners (apparently seated behind us enjoying a similar experience that is well-deserved) about the Pliny. They immediately mentioned all the ingredients are now available. He brought our bill, mentioned this, and it was on ... another round. All I can say is that the interaction of the sun, the Szechuan button, and the beautiful burn of Pliny ... was magical. This was the kind of experience that used to bring us to Brixology. They know it and are cultivating a return of this to Brix. This is a place we continue to love. We have reviewed before but felt this post-COVID update was needed. Whether on the patio or inside. Whether you like wine, cocktails or beer. This is a place to visit. You need to come here. read more

We chose Brix Wine Cellar & Restaurant as a venue to celebrate birthdays with a group of 20 people. Nita worked with us to coordinate all the details for a dedicated room, food and drinks. We were set up in a lovely room with dedicated attendants that catered to all our needs. Wine, beer, hors d'oeuvres and a Prix Fixe meal was served to all. The evening went very smooth, the meal was delicious and the service was exceptional. We look forward to visiting again, as Brix is one of our favorite places to gather. read more

We have been here at least 5 times since moving to the area. The food is so good and the wine selections and prices are excellent!

Brix is one of my favorite restaurants, but my last visit there was a memorable one. Moroccan Lamb Tacos! It was described as an appetizer, but I had it for my main course. Wow, best thing I have EVER eaten at Brix! Incredible! My only complain is this should be a regular menu item. The chef really hit a home run with this dish. I will also say this about Brix. At most other restaurants, I don't bother with wine that is below $80 or so because the markups are crazy. An $80 wine might be worth $20 at Specs. But at Brix, the wine prices are very good. I've had some excellent $50 and $60 bottles of wine. Why? Because the markups by Brix are very reasonable. Also Brix never fails to throw in some new gems to try. Thanks Brix!!!! read more

Hidden Gem, had a wonderful evening entertaining visitors from out of state. Wait staff were on top of every aspect of our meal. We will be back. read more

The staff is knowledgeable on the wine selection and told me every Saturday they try a new wine. They want to make sure to be able to describe the flavors and answer questions. We arrived around 9:50 and close at 10:30. They do not rush you out and let you keep talking and you wont see anyone cleaning till the place is cleared out. We had hummus and that was served with a good amount of puta bread. The dinner plates are split able...in my opinion. The spicy angle hair pasta with shrimp was a little to spicy but still yummy! read more

EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS! We hosted a rehearsal dinner for 60 guests followed by a welcome reception for 100+ guests at BRIX and it was fabulous! We are from out of state and Nita and her team made everything so easy, from the initial reserving of BRIX almost a year prior to the event, to her flexibility with menu, space, and timing, and finally to her insistence that I allow HER to do things so that I could relax and enjoy the celebration! The staff was amazing -- honestly, within a half hour into the event, I had my guests telling me how awesome and attentive the staff was .... and this continued all night. Can't say enough good about them. And BRIX itself as a venue for our events had the perfect ambience for the gathering and celebrating prior to the main wedding ceremony and reception. Food was delicious too -- and they took special requests with ease. All in all, we felt so grateful that we found Nita and BRIX for our family events - 100% recommend to anyone for a special occasion. read more

This is a really great place. We had a wonderful time. Food and drinks were wonderful. Staff and manager very attentive.

Zero Hospitality - Date Night Disappointment! We phoned early on a Friday evening for reservations, but were told that they did not accept reservations on weekends, nor for parties of less than six. Courteous conversation ended by being informed that unreserved seating was available at tables, and no reservations were taken for seating at the bar. When we arrived about 7:00 pm, the hostess stopped immediately inside the front door to seat us at the first table in the foyer traffic area with a chilly breeze from the 46-degree outside temperature. When we asked to be seated in the adjacent room that the hostess offered, she then disappeared for several minutes. We looked around for a manager, but only saw two teenage hostesses and a bartender who looked barely 21. The hostess returned, stating that there was no seating in the adjacent room, so we could wait outside. Not cool, as we are recovering from bad head colds. We asked how long would be the wait for a table. She said she didn't know. She gestured, "You can sit at the bar." (Phone call stated no bar reservations.) As we attempted to sit at the bar, the teen-looking bartender barked, "These seats are reserved!" Thus we promptly left Brix. Despite their conceit about the wine collection, this staff has no class nor courtesy. Skip this joint if you expect to be treated with some modicum of dignity. Literally, no adult staff was in the room. read more

Food was good and our waiter was perfect (very attentive). However, the treatment we received from several of the other staff - most notably the owner - that all of our party of five will have to think long and hard about whether or not we will ever return. Not only did the manger talk down to us upon arrival, my very polite husband was later questioned when going inside to use the restroom. You'll notice if you check my profile, I normally leave positive reviews. Next time I'm in Vintage Park for dinner, I'll go to La Corona where the service has never been less than stellar. read more

The shrimp scampi bruschetta is a must-have, and the Brix burger remains the best I've ever had. The owners are very knowledgeable about wine and are constantly updating the wine list. read more

Been here a couple of times now with my date, and we both absolutely love it. Aside from the extensive wine list, delicious food, and warm, inviting ambiance, the impeccable service we received from Alex sealed the deal on making this spot a favorite. His knowledge of wines blows my mind, and his food recommendations were spot on. We had such great conversation and laughs with him. He's a superstar - no doubt. Will absolutely be back! read more

Brix has become one of my favorite happy hour locations. It's perfect for an evening with the girls and the staff is amazing. I went in on Tuesday and was lucky enough to have Rebecca as my server and she is incredible!! Our glasses, wine and water, were always full, and she was so friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely be requesting her whenever we visit. read more

Had a great evening on the patio. Though they close a bit early in my opinion, the food and the wine was amazing. Great experience, enjoyed the atmosphere and the servers are well versed on the menu. Great for Date nights or just friends hanging out!! Would recommend. read more

Love love love BRIX!!! This is a must! Wine, cocktails, truffle fries, crab cakes, mac and cheese, brussel sprouts, steak, really everything is delicious. Service is incredible! This is one if my favorite spots. Outside listening to music when available, inside or party room. read more

This place is so good! From the excellent food to the service. Had the elk tenderloin and it was the best I've had. Highly recommended from the Hanks family. read more

Not feeling the love for this place, but not really hating it either. I feel like for my $9 glass of wine and my husband's $6 beer, it was a bit on the pricey side, naturally. I'm not difficult to please with a Pinot Noir, and this one was only okay. It is extremely dark inside. Romantic? Eh, maybe if romance comes from not being able to see your date's face. The cheese plate sounds appealing, and the burger they brought another table looked awesome, but I hate to shell out so much for wine bar food. It was a decent place to kill time before a movie, and I could see finding myself back here at some point, but it's no where I'm running back to fast. read more

If you want a delicious gourmet burger and truffle fries, this is the place to get one. Both of these items are the best I have had from a restaurant. Their food is delicious, and their service is great. read more

On the higher end dining. Food was okay, nothing special in my opinion. Nothing made the meal special. They do focus on wine pairings with your food. And I didn't order any. But feel like wine shouldn't make it break your dining experience. read more

Our dinner on New Year's eve was awful. I made reservations in November and our table was at the farthest back corner of the restaurant. Our waitress was inattentive and when I let her know we never got our appetizer, she blamed the kitchen. I got three scallops in a plate of mush for $34.00. They made a feeble attempt to pacify us with two free desserts for four people at our table. We were so embarrassed in front of our friends that were treating to a special dinner. Skip this place and go next door to Chef's Table for a true fine dining experience. read more

This place is very nice! It has really good food, wine & atmosphere! The Wait staff was so friendly and fast!

I'm always down to try a wine bar with an extensive food list. Nothing is worse than splitting a bottle and only having a cheese plate to snack on... Brix has a cool ambiance, right from the outdoor patio (had live music the night I went) to the unique decor inside. The food was a hit and miss for me. Here's my analysis: Hit: -Truffle Mac N Cheese: Amazing! One of the best Mac N Cheese's I've ever had -White Pizza: very flavorful -Wine Selection Miss: -Tenderloin Ravioli: Bland and way too salty - Tiramisu read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our Happy Hour drinks at Brix. We chose to sit outside since it was a nice day. My girlfriend and I each had their $5 happy hour wine. I went for the Cab while she chose the Pinot Gris. For our entrees, rather than go with the Happy Hour options, we went with the crispy Brussel Sprouts (loved the crisp with the sweet sauce) and the Margherita Pizza. Oddly enough, their pizza does not come with tomatoes. They charge $1 extra for the addition. Don't Margherita Pizzas come with tomatoes? Either way, we chose the additional topping and enjoyed every morsel. For their HH Menu, they have several very inexpensive options such as hummus served with naan and crispy veggies, pepperoni pizza, cheese platter, etc. Pretty decent selections. The restaurant itself has a cool wine cellar vibe to it. Definitely a nice place to hang out with a large group or on a date. All together, a chill spot to dine or to just have drinks. read more

This place was amazing, the atmosphere, food and service was just awesome. My server was Rebecca and she was one of the best servers I've experienced. The Ginger Bomb was truly an unforgettable drink. This place is perfect for date night! read more

Love brix! The filet is hands down my favorite dish! The staff is very knowledgeable about their wines and I love that the wine menu is on the iPad and easy to read. This is our go to place for date night read more

The food and drinks are good however I'm very disappointed with the service! Our waiter was very rude and barely checked on us. He seemed so rushed and stopped by while we were eating and asked what is our dessert choice then still with food and drinks at our table placed the check without telling us anything. We were planning on ordering more however his service was very unpleasant! He then came back 5 min later and pointed at the check and asked if it was ready! A place like Brix should be hiring respectful and well trained staff! Unlike Tanner C. The barman checked on us more than our waiter! read more

All around amazing experience. Hosted my rehearsal dinner at brix and nita was absolutely fantastic. Her and her staff made it a very wonderful night. Food is so delicious!! read more

My wife and I absolutely love this NW area wine bar. Whether you sit outside on the courtyard patio with nearby fountain or inside in the comfortable and (dare I say) romantic bar/dining room you will be well taken care of by their delightful staff. The wine list is fantastic...you can tell that they take care to source unique wines that are tougher to find and not readily available at Specs or HEB. Also, the menu is delicious and the food is from quality ingredients and consistently well prepared! Finally, their locker program provides great access to unique wines at reasonable prices...absolutely nothing to complain about! Highly recommended!! read more
